Abstract

4 The History of Religions in the Nineteenth and Twentieth Centuries

This article examines new perspectives in the field of religious studies recently opened up by the works of T. Fitzgerald, R. McCutcheon, R. King, T. Masuzawa, G. A. Oddie and D. Dubuisson.¹ It begins, however, by taking up the origin and history of these studies in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries so as to underline the paradoxes and impasses that still too often characterize them today.

Cet article examine quelques-unes des plus récentes perspectives ouvertes dans le domaine des religious studies par les travaux de T. Fitzgerald, R. McCutcheon, R. King, T. Masuzawa, G. A. Oddie et D. Dubuisson. Mais il revient pour commencer sur l'origine et l'histoire de ces études aux XIXe et XXe siècles afin de souligner les paradoxes et apories qui les caractérisent encore trop souvent aujourd'hui.
